Cambridge Upper Secondary caters to learners aged 14 to 16, offering two routes: Cambridge IGCSE and Cambridge O Level. It builds upon the foundation of Cambridge Lower Secondary, although completion of the prior stage is not a prerequisite.
Cambridge IGCSE and Cambridge O Level provide a comprehensive and balanced education across a wide range of subjects, emphasizing learner-centered and inquiry-based learning methods.
The Cambridge IGCSE curriculum is designed to accommodate learners with varying abilities, including those for whom English is not their first language. It encourages schools to tailor programs to their specific needs and offers a robust foundation in core subjects while allowing for interdisciplinary exploration. This curriculum enhances learners' creative thinking, problem-solving, and inquiry skills and serves as a springboard for advanced studies.
